Hull Online Betting Tips

Sportsbooks predicted Hull’s demise from the Premier League before the season started. Most sportsbooks pegged them as the -139 favorites to be relegated to the Championship. The Tigers didn’t disappoint. 

The ownership group should take most of the blame for Hull’s disappointing season. They started the season in turmoil, losing Harry Redknapp, their venerated manager dut to the ownership’s handling of promotion. They refused to spend the money needed to entice Premier League caliber talent. Starting the season short of players and confidence, Hull were on the backfoot from the onset. 

They had too much ground to make up in the second half of the season, all but guaranteeing their inevitable drop. Marco Silva, Hull’s newly appointed manager, almost pulled off a miracle but fell just short of their ultimate goal to stay in the Premier League. 

What’s to blame for Hull’s relegation? Their away form. Hull performed admirably at home, especially under Silva’s leadership. However, they were unable to transfer their home confidence in hostile territory. Hull were the worst team in the league on their travels, gaining a destitute six points all season, or one win in 19 matches. 

That’s a recipe for disaster. Will they be able to gain promotion straight away? It’s tough to say, especially considering how physically demanding the Championship is. This team have a lot of experience in gaining promotion, so they are equipped to make a go of it. Expect them to at least make the playoffs. From there, who knows what will happen.
